Xorg 1.5 and keyboard map (I read the other threads)
Hi there!
I "pacman -Syu"-ed just now, but my keymap won't load anymore. It defaults to the US one. Anyway, I get this error:
Error activating XKB configuration.
It can happen under various circumstances:
- a bug in libxklavier library
- a bug in X server (xkbcomp, xmodmap utilities)
- X server with incompatible libxkbfile implementation
X server version data:
The X.Org Foundation
10503000
If you report this situation as a bug, please include:
- The result of xprop -root | grep XKB
- The result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbdHere's xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "base", "evdev", "us", "fr", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "base", "evdev", "us", "fr", ""Here's gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
layouts = [us fr,ca,ca]
model = evdev
options = [grp grp:alts_toggle]And here's my xorg.conf

Re: Xorg 1.5 and keyboard map (I read the other threads)
By changing what?
I checked that my keymap still existed (ca,fr) and it does. I tried to comment out the "fr", just in case, but it did not change anything. I also tried to change from evdev-managed keyboard to the model of my keyboard and did not work. Every time I try to change something in the configuration of my keyboard, in fact, the message error I first posted keeps appearing.
If you have any suggestion of line to change, I'd be glad to hear it.

I mean, backup your xorg.conf and reconfigure with xorgcfg or something and see what happens.
Heeeeeey cat!!!

Re: Xorg 1.5 and keyboard map (I read the other threads)
Did you read http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … otplugging ?
If yes, why do you still configure your keyboard in xorg.conf?

Re: Xorg 1.5 and keyboard map (I read the other threads)
Ok. Thanks.
I reread the article more carefully and did the HAL thing, and it worked. (Thank you!!!)
However, the error message from X.Org still appears. How do I get rid of it? I tried to comment out any reference to keyboard thing in my xorg.conf, which now looks like that:

Re: Xorg 1.5 and keyboard map (I read the other threads)
Hi,
I'm Thinkpad T61 user, and my keyboard map became strange after upgraded to xorg1.5.
I read wiki page(http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg_input_hotplugging), and try to do that.
But, in my case, those solutions are not effective...
In GNOME keyboard pannel, I selected following
keyboard type : Evdev-managed keyboard
layout : Japan
Then I tried following command.
[kani@arch-slime ~]$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete+japan+ledscroll(group_lock)" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc+jp+inet(evdev)+altwin(super_win)+group(alts_toggle)+level3(menu_switch)+ctrl(swapcaps)" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc104)" };
};Hmmm, It looks strange.
My keyboard should be jp106.
And next, I tried follwoing commands.
[kani@arch-slime ~]$ setxkbmap -rules evdev -model jp106 -layout jp
[kani@arch-slime ~]$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "evdev(jp106)+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete+japan+ledscroll(group_lock)" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc+jp+inet(evdev)+altwin(super_win)+group(alts_toggle)+level3(menu_switch)+ctrl(swapcaps)" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(jp106)" };
};And now my keyboard map was in a right condition.
I do not understand what' wrong..
regards.
